I think this needs some adaptation:

- the lyrics "mum" and "dad" don't fit to the voices - should they be
inversed!?

Oops! I'm so used to the inverted situation with my parents!


- Reedmace Star had proposed to use \voiceOne and \voiceTwo (which is quite
usual when notating 2 voices in 1 staff): this helps the singers to locate
their part (and also eliminates the warnings about clashing notes).
But with the stems going down the lyrics are moved downwards, too, and they
don't seem to be on one line anymore. (maybe adding some kind of padding
could help).

Depending on the ambitus, \voiceXXX is not optimal, and there should be few warnings about clashing note columns. By the way, what I've used with King Arthur is a third voice with lyrics aligned above for the "overlapping" (see page 106 of the full score available on CPDL, bar 122).

I also think there are some LilyPond features that will not work in the
normal way and should be  discussed:

- stanza numbers

Having tried it, it appears that the one who doesn't sing on the first beat in the line is not mentioned (bug?).

- vocalName (shortVocalName)

Of no use in such a case: when a soloist shares the staff with the choir part, there is usually just a markup when switching (solo/tutti), or you "change" the instrument/vocal name which is attached to the *staff*.

Cheers,
